One Lady Left... Barely

Almira Scripchenko opened to 8,000 before Michael Benvenuti three-bet all in for 54,200. Scripchenko gave it a good, hard look, then made the call for about half her stack. It was a race:

Scripchenko: {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}
Benvenuti: {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts}

Benvenuti was nervous for his tournament fate, but his fears would be laid to rest as the dealer ran a safe board of {7-Spades} {9-Spades} {J-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {8-Clubs}. That's a double up for Mr. Benvenuti, while the last lady left standing has been set all the way back to just 41,000.
